3. Press the Clean pad while DELAY is displayed. * CLEAN will flash. If the door is not closed within 25 seconds, the self-cleaning operation will be canceled and the display will return to the time of day. 4. Press the More+ or Less- pad. * MEd for medium amount of soil (3 hours) is displayed. If the door is not closed, DOOR will appear in the display. After 45 seconds, three beeps will sound, the self-cleaning operation will be canceled and the display will return to the time of day. 5. Press the More+ pad twice for heavy soil (4 hours). * HVy will be displayed. Press the Less- pad twice for light soil (2 hours). * LITE will be displayed. Choosing the soil level of the oven automatically programs the self-cleaning time. 6. After four seconds, CLEAN, DELAY and LOCK will appear in the display to show that the oven is set for a delayed clean operation. The delay time is displayed and will begin to count down. When the Self=Clean cycle starts: * DELAY will turn off. * CLEAN, HOURS, LOCK and the clean time will appear in the display. To cancel the Self=Clean cycle: _l_ Press the CANCEL pad. * All words disappear from the display. * All functions are canceled. * The time of day appears in the display. During the Self=Clean Cycle When LOCK shows in the display, the oven door is locked. To prevent damage to the door, do not force the door open when LOCK is displayed. Smoke and Smells You may see some smoke and smell an odor the first few times the oven is cleaned. This is normal and will lessen in time. Smoke may also occur if the oven is heavily soiled or if a broiler pan was left in the oven. Sounds As the oven heats, you may hear sounds of metal parts expanding and contracting. This is normal and will not damage the oven. After Self=Cleaning About one hour after the end of the self-clean cycle, LOCK will turn off. The door can then be opened. Some soil may leave a light gray, powdery ash. Remove it with a damp cloth. If soil remains after wiping, that means the clean cycle was not long enough. The soil will be removed during the next clean cycle. If oven racks were left in the oven and do not slide smoothly after a clean cycle, wipe racks and rack supports with a small amount of vegetable oil to make them easier to move. Fine lines may appear in the porcelain because it went through heating and cooling. This is normal and will not affect performance. A white discoloration may appear after cleaning if acidic or sugary foods were not wiped up before the self=clean cycle. This discoloration is normal and will not affect performance. Notes: * If the oven door is left open, DOOR will appear in the display until the door is closed. * If more than five seconds elapse between pressing the Clean pad and the More+ or Less- pad, the program will automatically return to the previous display. * The oven door will be damaged if the oven door is forced to open when LOCK is still displayed. 17
